This positive outlook is supported by Ethereum’s recent performance, with the asset up 2.3% in the last 24 hours.

Market sentiment and options trading trends
While the regulatory environment is challenging, market sentiment surrounding Ethereum remains optimistic. In particular, there is a clear preference for call options over put options in the options market, indicating that traders are betting on Ethereum’s price increase.
The most popular strike price among these bullish bets is an ambitious $6,500, according to data from leading cryptocurrency options exchange Deribit.
The concentration of call options, especially those above $3,600, suggests that a significant portion of the market expects Ethereum to reach higher levels by the end of June.
In contrast, recent NBTC analysis suggests that Ethereum’s failure to breach the $2,925 resistance level could trigger another price decline. Initial support is located near the $2,880 level, followed by key support at the $2,860 area.
